Helene Stöcker

Helene Stöcker (13 November 1869 – 24 February 1943) was a German feminist, pacifist and gender activist. She successfully campaigned to keep same sex relationships between women legal, but she was unsuccessful in her campaign to legalise abortion. She was a pacifist in Germany and joined the ''Deutsche Friedensgesellschaft''. As war emerged, she fled to Norway. As Norway was invaded, she moved to Japan and emigrated to America in 1942.
